Hi, i just purchase a very nice pair of Vintage Mark levinson no.20 monoblock amplifiers, i would love to know which brand of preamp to go with these vintage amplifiers. Any suggestion will help.

Thanks

I ran the ML20.1 with the ML26S. Match made in heaven. Although I did not own the 33H, I owned the little brother ML333 and it was not up to par with the 20.1. Be aware of the significant repair cost of the 33 series amps.

Hi..
My ML no.20s are running with ML326s, sounded beautifully also. Just curious on the sound between ML33H and ML no.20 .

In my opinion the best ML for sound quality was the old ML2 Class A monoblocks.
They have low wattage but could drive anything to a certain level because they could really double their wattage all the way down to 1ohm.

Some guys love these so so much.
